Marbling ceramics workshops for mindful moments

Help your team take a moment for themselves with the Recess Living marbling ceramics workshop. 

Marbling ceramics is an ancient art form known not only for its mesmerising beauty but its meditative properties too. Play with stunning swirling colourways and a variety of ceramic objects, and learn to paint with water. As your team busy their hands, they’ll find it quietens their minds, unravelling any built-up tension and providing a space for rest and relaxation, all whilst allowing them to connect deeper to themselves and their coworkers. 

The beauty of marbling is that you never truly know what kind of design you will get. You’re forced to stop overthinking: to release control and embrace your natural creative flow. You and your team will walk away feeling nourished, refreshed, and de-stressed, as well as the proud owners of a new joyful marbled piece for the home.

74% of people described feeling 'distracted' or 'distanced' from negative emotion when engaging in a craft activity...as well as feeling more relaxed.

What can you expect at Recess Living marbling ceramics workshops?

Marbling is a traditional form of printmaking which involves floating a rainbow of coloured inks and paints on the surface of a specialist water bath. I’ll show you and your team how you can paint on water and create stunning one-of-a-kind prints that we’ll transfer on to ceramic homeware pieces.

“The marbling workshop was perfect for a relaxed, inclusive and mindful experience for my group.

I didn’t realise how cathartic it was… the feeling was magical and the marbling results, were sublime.

Nina knows how to create a safe, friendly and stress-free atmosphere and I would highly recommend Recess Living for group workshops.”
